Thanks for having me along. Many years ago I had several aquariums but they were all boxes with fish in them. Set up the tank, add a bunch of chemicals, throw in whatever fish caught my eye and hope for the best. This is my first planted tank and it is so much better for me and the fish display much better. I have some pests and have dealt with ich. The snails are a nuisance but managed, I do like them in there. There are neocaridina of various colors, not worried about the color reverting to natural in a few generations. Amanos, black neons, harlequin rasboras, rummy nose tetras and kuhli loaches . It’s moderately stocked and about 9 months old and 75 gallons.

Welcome to the forum. I like your wood and large rocks in there. Mine is a small 80 litre tank and pretty bare at the moment.
Still boiling the wood to leach some of the tannins.
